The League of Regrettable Superheroes: Half-Baked Heroes from Comic Book History - Jon Morris

Before I started this, I wrote down 5 random page numbers. What whatever superhero all on those pages is what I will write about in my updates. 

 

Funnyman:

 

The last creation from the creators of Superman, Siegel and Shuster. Funnyman had a whole arsenal of weapons; seltzer bottle of justice, exploding cigar of virtue,and  the banana cream pie of right. He bolted around town on his tricked out Trixcycle. He maintained the massive "Funny Manor" and in each room he had crook nabbing traps. His real identify was Larry Davis, a popular TV commedian. His love interest, June Farrell, was totally aware of secret identity and disliked that he fought crime dressed like a clown.
